The Price of Virginity
Fire Tragedy

I, Amira, am fourteen years old now. I'm a victim of a child trafficking mafia. I sold as a baby to Mami Merry - a mu*cikari, a special provider of young women under the age of twenty-two.

I was imprisoned in the care of Mami Merry. Just like the other five little girls. Nurtured and raised to be a money man's lustful gratifier.

Under Mami Merry's watch, no energy is wasted. Washing, cooking, and all homework are indisputable tasks. We are all slaves. Obedience to orders is an absolute must.

Our virginity is his precious treasure. Tens of millions, even to the top hundred million-price that Mami Merry offers to its customers. The bosses of the wise men, hoping for the efficacy of a virgin blood.

"That's a fair price, to return the money I've spent in taking care of you." He said it, to us.

At an early age, we have been taught how to decorate and take care of ourselves. How to satisfy a man, introduce the points of lust in a man, how to berse*ggama. The main point is to provide the best service to the guests.

That afternoon, I saw Asmah who had the same fate as me, crying in the corner of the bathroom. His body leaned against the wall and his hands hugged the knees of his feet.

"Why are you, Asmah?" I was worried, crouching beside him. My hand touched Asmah's shoulder.

"Why you?" ask me again, because Asmah has not answered my question.

Doubtful Asmah said, "A-a-I got my period, Ra."

Asmah immediately hugged tightly and cried in my arms.

"Yes ... Allah ...," I said

Haid is the doom for us-the children of Mami Merry. Like waiting for a certain death to come, but do not know when.

The arrival of menstruation is a sign if we are ready to be offered, auctioned at the most expensive price. Mami Merry just need to contact her top-class customers, and find out who the highest bidder is. Then after the Asmah period ends, it is ready to be sold and offered virginity.

Tonight, Asmah and Anita are ready. She was dressed well and dressed like a grown woman. Not to forget, Aunt Yusnia, the man who behaved like a female-assistant Mami Merry-awareness and reminded the two of them to practice the magic that had been taught. To give satisfaction to the winner.

Until dawn, I could not sleep, or maybe I did not want to sleep. I waited for Asmah and found out how she was. Very worried about him.

Asmah and Anita went home with tired faces, like enduring pain. Their steps limped, occasionally holding the groin. Tears on his cheeks. Asma continued to cry hugging me. He said nothing and just cried. Keep crying.

By noon, the fat giant Mami Merry-si came and went straight into the room. Gathering the five of us in the room, he called Asmah and Anita.

"It's money for you two, five million for you Anita and five million for you Asmah." While handing over the money to Asmah and Anita, Mami Merry turned to Aunt Yusnia.

"This is the most expensive android phone for both of you," he said again while handing the latest android devices to Anita and Asmah.

"And, you two-Anita and Asmah, no longer need to work to clean the house. You're just special accepting customers."

Cunning indeed Mami Merry. Those of us who used to never hold money, were given that much money and the latest gadgets. No need to work anymore either. That's Mami Merry's cunning way to keep ensnaring us all.

A few months later, I saw Asmah and Anita had started to change. It seems like they have started to enjoy easy money to earn. They can buy anything they want and want. Sometimes Asmah gave me pocket money and told me a lot if often given luxury goods from his customers. I just keep quiet. In my heart, I do not want to be like Asmah.

I feel so tired today. The work never ends for me. While I was drying my clothes, I was stunned, blood was flowing slowly from my groin down towards my feet. Tears are growing, flowing slowly.

Is this really my destiny?

I was really made sad, confused and panicked, with the arrival of my first period.

The fear that my virginity would be sold and should serve the tender winner's satisfaction over my body, gave rise to a great fear.

What am I supposed to do? Giving up slowly on the situation, or hiding my life secretly.

I looked left and right. Look around where I hang my clothes on the top floor of our shelter. I was lonely, there was no one, and then I quickly cleaned my menstrual blood, hid my old clothes in cleaning the blood, and took a t-shirt, whether it belonged to anyone.

To go out buying pads is definitely impossible, seeing the tight supervision in and out of which is guarded 24 hours, by the bouncer Mami Merry. In fact, to buy snacks or soft drinks at the stalls near where we were raised, we were closely monitored.

The only way is, if among the "SENIOR" get your period, and then tell me to buy a pad. It is also being monitored.

As soon as I dried my clothes, I went straight to Asmah. I took Asmah a little bit away to talk about this period to him secretly.

"I got my period, As," I said slowly to Asmah, as my eyes watched around.

"When?" half whispering, Asmah asked.

"So, when I was drying my clothes."

"Trus, get your period covered, how?" Asmah looked to the left and right. Afraid someone would listen to our conversation.

"I used a T-shirt to cover it" I replied to Asmah.

"Entahlah .. I am also confused," I replied slowly.

My tears started to expand, flowing slowly.

"I can't do it, As ...." I wiped the tears. Really in a confused state.

"What do I have to do now?"

"You wait a minute, it looks like .. I still have some pads left over my period yesterday."

Asmah immediately rushed towards her room, before long Asmah returned and brought her leftover sanitary napkin, slightly hidden by Asmah while carrying it.

"Later, if I go out to accompany guests, I will buy you a new sanitary pad" Asmah said. I'm just nodding.

"Thank you As?" Asmah just smiled, and left me.

Hurry up, I'll go to the bathroom to put on the pads.

But, how I hid the old t-shirt I was wearing covering my period, I forgot to bring a plastic bag.

I hid the old t-shirt covering my period in the corner of the bathroom, right behind the laundry soak. I don't know whose clothes, I thought for a moment. Then immediately look for plastic bags.

I found plastic bags in the corners of our rooms all, juniors who have not been sold Mami Merry, because we were put together in the same room. Different from the senior.

When I went to the bathroom, I was surprised to see Mami Merry was already there, followed by Auntie b*nci, her bodyguard, and some friends of the village, I immediately turned back.

"Amira! ... Get back here!" Wretched me. Mami Merry looked at me, and yelled.

I'm afraid I'm approaching Mami Merry.

"That's what you hold in your hand!" hard snapped.

Hesitating, I went to the plastic bag I had hidden.

Didn't say much, slapped him so hard on my face that I fell. I pulled my hair tight, and the big leg just kept kicking me. It hurts.

I can only cry.

Seen in the corner of the room, Asmah also cried, seeing me tortured by Mami Merry.

"Brazed you, you fucking kid....! How dare you try to lie to me!"

His feet once again kicked my body.

No. .. I did not ask for forgiveness nor asked Mami Merry to stop torturing me.

I just shut up and cry.

"Once again you try to lie to me, I'll kill you!" mami Merry's loud scream threatened me.

Mami Merry left me helplessly drooping on the floor, followed by the others.

Asmah immediately approached me, hugged me tightly, cried sobbing in her arms, and wept together.

"Patiently yes, Ra," he said, as he continued to hug me.

Tonight, I'm dressed as an adult, tonight, I'm forced to sell my virginity, to the winner of the highest tender I don't know who

"Beautiful you neekk ... Aunt b÷nci praised me, in my heart I cried. So hurt.

Suddenly Mami Merry walked into the room where I was dressed, smiling she saw me.

"You, Amira!...The selling price of your virginity was the highest as long as I was in business. You're a new prima donna candidate here." Laughing with Mami Merry.

"Serve your tender winners well. Practice what you have been taught all this time. Make your customers satisfied. I'll give you 10 million and a new android phone for you."

Passed out of Mami Merry's room. Continuing to laugh out loud, she seemed very happy.

Maybe this is my path of destiny.

Crying my heart, shortness of my breath.
